A Reading List for Kayaking In Costa Rica/Ecuador

Part of taking a vacation is being able to have some down time. No one ever believes it until they are with us: often with a week-long paddling trip, by the time dinner is over thoughts of bedtime are dancing through everyone´s heads. There are evenings where it can be a struggle to stay awake until 9PM!! The other novelty besides a great night of sleep on a paddling vacation is the opportunity to read a book that has been sititng on the nightstand for some time. Between our location once out in paddling country (remote), and the luxury of being driven around everywhere (our trips all come with a shuttle bunny!), that ‘I’ve been meaning to read’ book can happen. This year there has been a great selection of books brought down and shared among us.

Three Cups of Tea, Greg Morenson & David Relin – two copies floated between friends over Thanksgiving. Three Cups of Tea is this year’s Kite Runner-a huge favorite last year.
